Re: [PATCH] powerpc: make of_device_ids const

of_device_ids (i.e. compatible strings and the respective data) are not
supposed to change at runtime. All functions working with of_device_ids
provided by <linux/of.h> work with const of_device_ids. This allows to
mark all struct of_device_id const, too.

While touching these line also put the __init annotation at the right
position where necessary.

Hello,

I don't know how arch/powerpc is maintained. So please tell me if I
should split this patch further.

I manually checked that all const annotations are OK, and the 0day build
bot didn't find a regression.

Thanks.

We'll take it as-is, it seems to merge cleanly.

We track patches via patchwork, this one is at:
